	Jujutsu Becomes Judo
		Although jujutsu's techniques were known from the earliest times, it was not until the latter half of the sixteenth century that jujutsu was practiced and taught systematically.
		Jujutsu may be translated as "the gentle art," judo as "the Way of gentleness," with the implication of first giving way to ultimately gain victory.
		If we accept jujutsu as the art or practice of making the most efficient use of mental and physical energy, then we can think of judo as the way, the principle, of doing this, and we arrive at a true definition.

	On Jujutsu and its Modernization (Site not responding. Last check: )
		Jujutsu, which had techniques for hand to hand combat, studied "true power." In order for each us to experience personally the "core principles of the martial arts," we must not stop at the mere, repetitious practice of kata.
		Another secret principle of jujutsu, true natural posture (shizen hontai or mugamae), was developed because of this need for quick taisabaki using forceful locomotive power, and applies to defense against all attacks, whether made from close in or from a distance.
		Comparing kenjutsu to jujutsu, the former used to have far more schools, but because the form of kenjutsu combat--no matter what the school--was simply sword against sword, it was easy to modernize kenjutsu successfully, and have competitive shiai: one just brought the students from the various schools together and let them sword fight.

	Jujutsu and the origins of Judo
		The word jujutsu may be translated freely as "the art of gaining victory by yielding or pliancy." Originally, the name seems to have been applied to what may best be described as the art of fighting without weapons, although in some cases short weapons were used against opponents fighting with long weapons.
		Having thus discussed in a brief way the origin of jujutsu, and what jujutsu is in general way, we shall now turn to the different schools and the differences which are said to exist between the several names of the art mentioned above.
		Jujutsu is an art of fighting without weapons and sometimes with small weapons much practiced by the samurai, and less generally the common people in the times of the Tokugawas.

		Jujutsu (also jujitsu, ju jitsu, ju jutsu, or jiu jitsu; from the Japanese 柔術; jūjutsu "gentle/yielding/compliant Art") is a Japanese martial art.

	Jujutsu: The Art of Yielding & Pliability
		Jujutsu is a martial art that does not hide behind a veil of mysticism and psychology, but instead deals with the realities of combat with no exaggerated claims.
		Translated into English, jujutsu means “gentle, pliable, or flexible art.” The “gentleness” of the art is expressed in the execution of the techniques, and is not reflected in the effect upon the attacker, except at the discretion of the person executing the technique.
		Jujutsu can, therefore, be defined as various armed or unarmed fighting systems that can be applied against armed or unarmed enemies.” As with all jujutsu techniques, the amount of force is controlled and the line of force (direction) is controlled.

	wado ryu and jujutsu
		The general perception of Jujutsu is that it is the forerunner of its more sanitized and homogenised descendant Judo; a highly specialised form of unarmed grappling utilizing principles of yielding and redirecting energy against an attacker.
		In the west this view is reinforced by the preponderance of "modern" Jujutsu clubs, who by and large teach sequences of techniques or tricks to throw, disable or lock the opponent.
		Ostensibly numerous teachers of modern Jujutsu claim to be teaching self defence for a modern age, and as such turn their backs on many aspects of traditional Japanese Jujutsu, discarding what they consider to be anachronistic, as well as those aspects that they simply don't understand.

	On Modern Jujutsu (jujitsu), Kenji Tomiki
		Master Kano stated that Jujutsu, because it was a martial art that had long had as its main purpose the simple issue of victory or defeat, does not comport with the spirit of times after the Meiji Restoration.
		The secret principle of jujutsu, true natural posture (shizen hontai or mugamae), was developed on the base of this taisabaki and applies to all techniques.
		Comparing kenjutsu to jujutsu, the former used to have far more schools, but because the form of kenjutsu combat was simply sword against sword it was possible to modernise kenjutsu successfully so as to be able to have competitive shiai simply by collecting the various schools into one form of combat.
